For 2015, Ultra Music Festival Will Now Require You To Be 18 Years And Older To Attend

Ultra Music Festival is announcing a minimum age of attendance for its festival here in Miami. Beginning in 2015, Ultra will now only allow people aged 18 years and older to attend the event.

The 2015 edition of UMF goes down March 27, 28 and 29 2015 in Downtown Miami. In an official statement published earlier today on Facebook, organizers said:

“While we sincerely value the incredible ongoing support from our younger fans, we ultimately believe that Ultra Music Festival is a premium event geared towards adults. This decision has been made to reinforce and promote the safety of all Ultra Music Festival fans and to ensure the overall enjoyment of all future attendees. We are extremely grateful for all the support we have received from our younger fan base to date, and we encourage them to attend the festival once they reach the appropriate age. Until then, our free YouTube stream, ‘ULTRA LIVE’ is available worldwide for everyone of all ages to enjoy and share in the Ultra experience.”

“The first step to having fun is feeling safe,” Martinez said, “We have chosen to adopt several new measures during next year’s festival to ensure our event is safe and secure. The first step to preserving the unique atmosphere that Ultra is famous for is to be proactive in attracting the right crowd.”
